How It Works

No appointment needed: Register, answer a brief questionnaire and pay the doctor’s fees. A certified doctor will contact you by phone in order to evaluate your eligibility.

Get your recommendation instantly: If approved, you will receive an instant certificate (visitors) or a recommendation with a pre-filled license application (residents).

Go to the dispensary (for Foreign Visitors): The certificate is valid in all PR dispensaries. Don’t forget to bring your State ID with you!

Wait for your Medical Cannabis Card: (For PR Residents only). We will process it with the PR Health Department. Once your medical cannabis card is issued, you will receive an email confirmation.

Save time and money: Get your medical cannabis license from the privacy of your home.

What do we include?

If you are a foreign visitor with a medical cannabis card, you will get a medical cannabis certification by a certified doctor in Puerto Rico which is accepted in all dispensaries. A printed copy can be send by mail if requested for an additional fee.

If you are a PR resident, you will get a medical cannabis recommendation by a certified doctor. We will process the paperwork with the PR Health Department so you can get your card. Once the card is issued, you will have to pick up your card in person as requested by the Health Department.
